Long-awaited has new music by The Vaccines been since their latest album Combat Sports was released back in 2018, but you may soon be in luck…
If you didn’t think this year could get any better after the announcement of the new Wolf Alice album, The Vaccines have gone even further with the promise of a new album and a brand-spanking-new EP to listen to while you wait.
Frontman Justin Hayward-Young announced in December that the band’s official fifth album was complete and would follow up the new EP ‘Cosy Karaoke’, a compilation of six brilliant covers.
Today we were treated to that very EP, an assortment of brilliant renditions of fantastic tunes which have been given that timeless vaccines treatment.
It takes a great band to cover an already excellent song and make it truly their own, but The Vaccines have sure pulled it off on every track.
Tracklist:
- Funnel of Love – (Wanda Jackson)
- No One Knows – (Queens of the Stone Age)
- High Horse – (Kacey Musgraves)
- Telstar – (The Tornados)
- For What It’s Worth – (Buffalo Springfield)
- Fire – (Waxahatchee)
